I bought this tankini for lap swimming while pregnant and I have not been disappointed. It is durable, comfortable and fits great! I wanted a suit that would cover my belly and give me the flexibility to wear it at all stages of my pregnancy. It stays put and has a drawstring at the bottom so you can cinch it under your belly. I originally bought the top and bottom in M (I am 5"6, 125 lbs 34B pre-pregnancy; I have gained 15 lbs and 3 bra sizes) and it was too baggy in the bust especially the pink seam underneath the bust. I kept the M bottoms, but exchanged the top for a S which is still comfortable and has enough room for my expanding belly but doesn't sag in the chest.

8/13/2013Great suit for lap swimming while pregnant!

By amberpalms

For swimming while pregnant, comfort is priority but a cute suit sure helps a woman feel good too! This suit fits the bill in both categories. It is very functional for lap swimming. As an amateur triathlete, I wanted something that I could use through the 2nd and 3rd trimesters for lap swimming. This suit provides great coverage and the design is rather appealing for a maternity swimsuit. I have had other suits from Target and other online retailers but this one is definitely higher quality and better looking than any of the others I have tried! I highly recommend this maternity swimsuit for keeping fit during pregnancy!

4/28/2014Quality Material and Modest

By 1st Time Mom

I wasn't crazy about the pattern on the suit, but the suit itself is quality material and well-constructed. Sometimes the drawstring gives a little and the suit is able to slide up in the water, but that has only happened when I am doing vigorous exercises during water aerobics class. I paired this top with some full-paneled maternity shorts from another retailer, so I still have adequate coverage, even if the top slides up. Works well for lap swimming.

I was disappointed this suit did not have bra pads, so I sewed some in myself. That was my biggest drawback about the suit - just felt it needed a little more support.

Overall, I think the suit and material is very quality, modest, and comfortable. The suit fits well so far - began using at about 5 months & still fits well now that I'm in my 7th month. Would definitely recommend this retailer to others.

SUCCESS!

1/27/2014TOO BIG for 36 D

By paalyssa

Either this top is just too big for 36 D or it isn't very supportive. I ordered a medium going by the pre-pregnancy size of 34 B and the top part of the top was too long toward my waist so instead of shipping it back and taking a chance on the small being too small I took it up at the shoulder seam, that only made the staps tighter against my neck. Also, the first time I wore the suit, the drawstring pulled out from the bottom negating that feature all together. I gave it a 4 because all-n-all I think it is a well made suit if one was shaped right to fit into it.

SUCCESS!
